What follows from the reading
Share of working time within reach of AI, on the long-run pace at four in five: 31% now, 39% at the end of 2027, 42% at the end of 2028, 44% at the end of 2030. By the patterns, the work is about 44% desk work, 31% people work and 25% body work.

By the same patterns, at the end of 2028 about 56% of the working time stays with people (conversation, in-person and hands-on work), 36% becomes checking a model's work and 5% could be handed over with lighter checks, from the industries' own figures, not the company's roles.
